The project, sponsored by the United Nations Fund for Population
Activities (UNFPA) with official development assistance worth over 5.5 million
USD, will run from 2017 to 2021 in Hanoi.

It is designed to enhance access to and the quality of sexual and
reproductive health care and family planning services, including contraceptive
methods for youngsters, particularly disadvantaged youth and single migrants.

It will also improve the accessibility and use of human papilliomavirus
(HPV) vaccines as well as cervical cancer treatment.

In addition, the project will help the Ministry of Health build and
monitor policies and programmes tackling inequality in maternal healthcare in
minority communities, gender violence and gender imbalance while strengthening
medical response to emerging issues like climate change and natural
disasters.-VNA
